Welcome!
RISE (7th and 8th Grades)
RISE is designed to meet the cognitive and affective needs of academically gifted students. In this class students build on the critical thinking, problem-solving, research, and communication skills they learned in EPIC. Units of study enable the students to operate at complex levels of thought and encourage the seeking of interrelationships among many bodies of knowl-edge. The curriculum includes broad-based themes which allow for the integration of multiple disciplines. Research, experiential learning, and contests are a part of the RISE experience.
